Tech-Info: EGR-Valves

To meet these demands, the quality brand VEMO offers you a wide range of high-quality EGR valves.

Depending on the design, our EGR valves are controlled electrically, with negative pressure or in combination. Furthermore, VEMO offers a large number of EGR valves, which are equipped with an electrically or pneumatically switched bypass flap. This allows the exhaust gases to pass the EGR cooler in the warm-up phase, so that the engine and catalytic converter reach the optimum operating temperature as quickly as possible and an even cleaner and more efficient combustion takes place.

We are always guided by the needs of our customers. Therefore all of our EGR valves includes gaskets and get shipped in shockproof packaging for safe storage and transportation.
